Asked By TechyGuru42 On

I'm using Malwarebytes for my computer's security, and it's recently been flagging something labeled in Chinese characters as '360'. I don't know what this program is, and I want it gone since it doesn't appear in my control panel. I noticed it briefly in the task manager, but it vanished as soon as I clicked on it. Is there a way for me to delete this program?

Sometimes, antivirus programs will flag harmless software just to encourage you to upgrade your plan. That said, it looks like you're dealing with something suspicious. A deeper investigation into that '360software assistant' could help you finalize whether it's malicious.

I read that Malwarebytes is now flagging a file located at "c:programdatastreamA32.exe". You should definitely check what that file is — if it's linked to the suspicious program, you'll want to quarantine or delete it.

It sounds like that might be an info stealer, especially if it keeps disappearing from your task manager. It's best to run a full system scan with Malwarebytes to see if it can identify the threat more clearly.
